The Burning Man festival removed a massive pro-Palestine sculpture from the list of art installations set to be on display at the massive gathering this summer.
More than 1,000 people signed an online petition demanding the 8-foot-by-14-foot fiberglass watermelon titled “From the River to the Sea” previously listed on the event’s website be removed — but organizers said the listing was only submitted to cause a “stir” and likely won’t be part of the annual festival in the Nevada desert.
“The phrase ‘From the River to the Sea’ is more than just words; it is a battle cry that legitimizes violence against Jewish people and promotes a vision that denies the Jewish state’s right to exist,” the petitioners argued.
The phrase is a popular one among anti-Israel protesters since the war began on Oct. 7 with Hamas’ brutal attack on Israel.
“There is no place for hate and antisemitism at all!” one of the petition’s signers commented. “Especially in a festival promoting freedom and acceptance! Shame!”

The Hamas wing has loot.
Maybe the Paiute Tribal Police will be all along the route this year.
bunch of demonic freaks, imo
Burn it.
Kumbaya. Everything is beautiful. We’ve got to teach the world to sing in perfect harmony. Sign sign, everywhere a sign. Do this, don’t do that. Can’t you read the sign? Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair. Get out of the way if you can’t lend a hand. The times they are a changin’. I dreamed I saw the bombers riding shotgun in the sky. They were turning into to butterflies above our nation. And no religion, too.
Was it this event that got rained on in a previous year causing all kinds of problems?
A modern day pagan festival. Man burning is surprisingly apt.

Yes, God gave them a hint, and they’re not paying attention to it.
Kinda hard to burn stuff when it’s all wet. Last year -

One of my sons went to a few of those. Just a big drug party as far as I can tell.
Oh yeah it’s all fun and games until Hamas arrives in ultralights and machineguns everybody and rapes and mutilates the surviors.
What is that from?
Wicker Man. That’s Christopher Lee.
I thought after last year it was permanently over. Too bad.
Yes, please burn 🔥 it!
I hope so.
It needs to be annihilated from the face of the earth 🌎 🌍🌏.
Burning Man.
